Chrystal McConnell Emerald Nick Bogen, a freshman and member of the Beta Theta Pi fraternity, headed for the Health Center early Saturday morning to receive the meningococcal vaccination. Reaction continued from page 1 ter to receive the antibiotic. “It really sunk in and hit home,” Bogen said. “It put me in a weird mood for the rest of the day. ” Petit discouraged people from taking the $66 vaccine if not need ed, for the same reason he would not give a flu vaccination to imme diately help someone with the flu. But Petit added that students are encouraged to get the vaccine dur ing fall term when they arrive on campus. Eyster said that even though the vaccination will not cure immedi ate cases, many students said they wanted to be vaccinated simply to feel safer. “Obviously, we don’t want to err on the side of not doing enough,” he said. Members of the Greek system were still stunned by the news of Dieringer’s death, even though they had discussed how to handle a cri sis situation just about a week be fore she died. Michael Kubas, the Interfraterni ty vice president of public relations, and Hannah Unkefer, the Panhel lenic vice president of public rela tions, held a meeting Jan. 31 to in form public relations representatives in every Greek chapter about crisis management protocol for incidents such as death, injury or severe injury of a member. “I don’t think anyone was expect ing it would actually happen,” Kubas said. “But I think we tried to get everyone prepared for a situa tion like this.” “You try to put yourself in their situation, and you can only imagine how terrible it would be for every body,” she said. Kappa Delta members plan to pin pink ribbons over their hearts, and other houses will hang pink sheets in her memory. Pink was Dieringer’s favorite color. Annie Lagozzino, a sophomore psychology major and member of the Pi Beta Phi sorority, said she had been around Dieringer only a week before she died. Her boyfriend and Dieringer’s boyfriend, Kyle Knep per, are in the same fraternity, Sig ma Phi Epsilon. Lagozzino, who received the an tibiotic last year, said she was shocked by Dieringer’s death and of fered sympathy for Dieringer’s friends in Kappa Delta and in the residence halls. “She was really gentle and friend ly,” Lagozzino said. “She had a re ally calm presence about her.” Abdul Shaikh, the risk manage ment chairman of Sigma Phi Ep silon, said his house was hit hard by the tragedy. He said his fraternity brothers all knew Dieringer well be cause she came over to the house frequently, and after the news of her death broke out, the members were all concerned. “Everyone was worried and sad,” Shaikh said. “We didn’t know what [the meningococcal disease] really was, and we went around and bleached the whole house.” Meghan Crosno, a junior sociolo gy major, said that last year when Dateline ran a program about meningitis, it sparked concern on campus, but then the issue was for gotten. Crosno said the disease de serves more attention. “They haven’t made a big deal about it,” Crosno said. “This disease can kill you in a short amount of time.” Jen Kubicki, a sophomore busi ness major, said she and her friends headed to the health center during the weekend, but it was out of the vaccine. So instead, they received the antibiotic at the urgent care divi sion of Peace Health. “We were expecting the health center to be out of the vaccination,” Kubicki said. “We were scared and concerned, and it was frightening that it actually happened; it wasn’t just something in a movie. ” fwpppppp Calendar Monday, Feb. 12 • Exhibition: The Advanced Photogra phy Group Show, with works by Joce lyn Weatherby and others.
